Boarding a train at Pimlico going north the southbound trains are on the

like this.


Between Oxford Circus and Warren Street and back again between KXSP
and Highbury and Islington. It's so that the northbound and southbound
tracks are the same sides as the equivalent tracks at Euston, for
cross-platform interchange.

Here are two maps that show it:http://web.archive.org/web/200603022..._trackmap.html

I suppose that explains the Northern Line's movement from left to

make connections easier.
